Hello All! My name is Dave and I have a music problem. I can’t stop listening to music, finding new music, reading about music, etc. My online moniker is oZriic (anyone know where that name came from?) and I usually post on my music blog SidVision. My blog has become more of just a place for personal notes and song sharing for friends / family at this point, so it is pretty cool that PJ has given me another outlet for posting (especially a site that gets a lot more readers). Thanks PJ!
Anyway, on to a group that I have been listening to a lot lately. . .
Little Joy is a smooth tasting side-project of the Strokes drummer Fabrizio Moretti, along with Rodrigo Amarante of Brazilian indie band ‘Los Hermanos’, and Binki Shapiro providing soft sweet vocals on a few songs (like the incredible “Unattainable”). These guys have a likable, retro, Latin-flavored sound. As I listen, I can’t help but daydream about sipping cool summer drinks while relaxing in a comfy hammock.
Their self-titled debut album came out at the end of last year and seems to be slowly picking up momentum. Chill out and listen to “The Next Time Around” and “No One’s Better Sake”. Let me know what you think.
